Light

This 6-year-old got right down to business during Illustration Friday at GAC yesterday.  We were a little surprised that the old incandescents are still the first thing that came to this young mind in response to the word "Light."

In a whimsical turn of events, however, the rest of the session was given over to spontaneous creation of paper snowflakes, inspired by the seasonal window treatments now decorating our ArtWorks museum store.

As the early visitors to Dickens on The Strand began walking by the windows in Victorian costume, tiny bits of paper (or "schnibbles" as they're called in some German families) happily flew everywhere, creating a miniature snowstorm in one corner the gallery.

It just goes to show how the simple invitation to explore our creativity can lead just about anywhere...
